Cross-platform pluggable menu based launcher
You can find plugins here: spajus/hawkscope-plugins
To build Hawkscope executable jar, you need:
- JDK 5+
- Maven 2.0.6+
Hawkscope uses Eclipse SWT native libraries for each os / arch. Library dependency is automatically selected via Maven profiles in pom.xml. Current profiles are: win32, win64, linux32, linux64.
To install SWT native library to local Maven repository, find out your system architecture (i.e. if you're on Windows XP, it is most probably 32 bit, so your architecture would be win32), then install the appropriate jar from Hawkscope project's /lib folder. Refer to lib/install.txt to find the mvn install:install-file line that is suitable for you.
If you want to build Hawkscope and there is no profile for your operating system and CPU architecture, you can create new Maven profile in pom.xml, download your SWT implementation from http://www.eclipse.org/swt/ and install it. Please feel free to contribute new profiles.
To build an executable jar, simply run:
$ mvn clean package
The jar will be in target/ folder, named: hawkscope-(version)-(os)-(arch)-jar-with-dependencies.jar
Running directly from source is good for debugging purposes. In console, execute:
$ mvn clean compile exec:java -Dexec.mainClass=com.varaneckas.hawkscope.Launcher -e
Doubleclick the executable jar, or execute in console:
$ java -jar hawkscope-<version>.jar
